[Zero Hour]

I can give copies of Half-Life 2 and Portal for a key if anyone wants to trade!

[sa2fan]

D'awww, oh well, congrats!

[Creesco]

Well fair is fair, congrats.

[Milkyway M16]

I want to get into the beta just so that I can nag them constantly until they completely redo the weapon anims.

aww... a day late and a dollar short.

[The very best]

I hope my ridiculous amount of hours on CS:S helps my chances.

[Freakie]

Did anyone else in here actually get a key?

[Hobbax]

Q) How can I get into the beta?
A) Be active in the CS community. We are giving keys out to active players both in game and in the community. We will also have a survey up in the coming weeks that can help you get your name on the list for a key.

Well, thats why i see counter strike+source in first top game list :P

I just read from some sources that a bunch of keys were given to gaming sites to distribute to their "subjects".

If you happen to spot some of these "opportunities", write a quick note in this thread, for people to know.

[Reimu]

Gave mine out to my best-friend in Spain.
I promised him one ages ago when I first got in the beta.

how to farm: leave counter strike :source open in -textmode -nosound

[haxorfox]

Didn't they gave out those keys already?

Yes but they are giving away keys every days or weeks

Really no point in doing it unless you can have your computer on 24/7 since there are always people who will keep it on all day.

Congrats sir! How many hours do you have? :/ TELL ME!

Edit: I know. They should do it by Rounds played.

I wish it went by overall time.

I haven't played a lot of CS:S lately because I've been waiting for GO.

I'll accept your request and send it when I get home...in 6 hours.

Hey what's this "casual mode" I've heard some about? Respawning?

No. It's about having/earning more money, getting armor automatically each round, stuff like that.

And players not colliding with each other.

Didn't get a spare beta key to give out.

You didn't play it enough. Not everyone got keys, only the ones who played it the most. I didn't get a key too, so what?

I didn't realise 6 hours of the same map over and over wasn't enough, but I wasn't having a go just wanted to give my friend a key is all , no need to be touchy.

[Ehmmett]

They give keys for playing? That's good for me since CS:S is almost the only game I can play during my waiting in between classes.

[SFC3]

Anyone with the beta do me a favor please: Could someone give me the main menu theme from the beta?

I don't have the beta but if you have Audacity I can provide you a very neat .aud file.

I got a key and I only have 9 hours in CS:GO.
What the fuck Valve, that isn't fair.

[En Ex]

Just got into the beta, and the first bug I encounter is getting stuck inside other men at spawn. I had to knife my way out. :/

[Raijin]

The update broke a lot of stuff
Namely animations and framerate

I may as well confirm this. I'll have uh "some" keys that I'll be giving out on the 21st through my site and the site's Twitter.

Chet said it was perfectly fine to start telling people about it so I'm not sure why this wouldn't be confirmed by others outright already.

Ok, cool.
I'll be monitoring stuff closely.

Just wondering if you're from US. I might have to change my schedule on the 21st, being European 'n all.

[Dierag]

Have some Inferno

Sorry about the buzzing noise, I left the microphone record option on in Fraps by accident ;V

[yuki]

Good god I hope they update the sounds. They're just placeholder, right? That is, the recycled CS:S sounds?

[Lizzrd]

Would be nice with some respawning modes imo, like CTF or deathmatch.
